striking, original image. the face looks like an entirely different world from the fabric that frames it. 8

not bad. nice texture and composition. lighitng could be a little more intersting to make the shot more 3D. the crop seems a littel to tight for her eyes. 6

edit; a border would really help this sshot too. it would ground it more i find

This really caught my attention, the crop of the photo and the childs eyes stood out. Lovely.

almost perfect. The exact focus doesn't seem to hit the eyes unfortunately.

Amazing shot! I love the expression, but I think the eyes may feel a little too squeezed. Perhaps a slightly wider crop?

wow those eyes. nicely captured

Wow.. great idea, great look. Unfortunately there is a small bit overexposed which to me detracts from the look. Bright spots always compete for attention. vote=9

Nice shot. A little more editing on the right side of the face in my opinion may have brought this to the next level.
